Jennifer Lawrence finally joined the Instagram family and got the account verified within hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On September 9, Jennifer Lawrence joined Instagram with the handle @jlaw after spending more than a decade without a social media presence.<\/p>\n

She couldn\u2019t use her own name for the account, since another user had already claimed @jenniferlawrence years earlier; that account\u2019s bio reads, \u201cI\u2019m not famous, but I do have a famous name.\u201d\u00a0 Lawrence addressed the mix-up with characteristic humour in her own bio, writing simply, \u201cjennifer lawrence was taken.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite not having posted anything to her grid yet, she\u2019d already amassed well over 170,000 followers within hours of the account going live, with that number continuing to climb. Lawrence has long been candid about her aversion to social media.<\/p>\n

Speaking to\u00a0BBC Radio 1\u00a0<\/em>back in 2014, she said flatly, \u201cI will never get Twitter. I\u2019m not very good on the phone or technology. I cannot really keep up with emails, so the idea of Twitter is so unthinkable to me\u2026 It\u2019s like this weird enigma that people talk about. It\u2019s fine. I respect that.\u201d<\/p>\n

She briefly had an official Facebook page run by her team, which has since been shut down. In a 2018 interview with\u00a0InStyle<\/em>, she described herself as more of a silent observer than a participant online: \u201cI\u2019m on it. But I\u2019m a voyeur: I watch, I don\u2019t speak\u201d.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s also acknowledged maintaining a secret, anonymous presence on TikTok, telling\u00a0Fandango\u00a0<\/em>she gets into arguments in comment sections there, joking that her incognito persona \u201cstarted\u201d with conversations about the\u00a0Real Housewives\u00a0<\/em>franchise before intensifying once she began weighing in on the British royal family.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear exactly why Lawrence chose now to finally go public, though the move likely ties into promotion for her upcoming film projects; she has a rumoured small cameo in the upcoming\u00a0Hunger Games\u00a0<\/em>prequel film, out this November, and stars in next year\u2019s\u00a0What Happens at Night<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Her early following list offers some hints about her circle, including\u00a0What Happens at Night\u00a0<\/em>collaborators Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese,\u00a0Hunger Games\u00a0<\/em>co-star Josh Hutcherson, friends Dakota Johnson and Suki Waterhouse, and several members of the Kardashian-Jenner family.<\/p>\n
